The Ridgecrest Neighborhood Association put on their annual ice cream social on Thursday, August 16, 2018 at Paramount School Park, 15300 8th Ave NE, Shoreline 98155, and as usual, it was an extravaganza.

Inflatables slides, pirates, three bands, multiple emergency vehicles for kids and adults to try on for size, -- did I mention the helicopter landing?

Oh, and there was ice cream, too, served by neighborhood volunteers and city council members.
